Dear Parents & Carers

A few updates for this week, at the end of our second full week –

Covid-19 Vaccinations

You will be aware of the announcement to vaccinate 12-15 year olds made this week.  Vaccinations will be rolled out at schools over the next few weeks by the School Immunisation Service.

Your consent and involvement will be vital in this and you will receive a separate letter next week, with information and a link to the Sussex Health & Care Partnership – Covid 19 Vaccination Programme page where you will find information, guidance and answers to Frequently Asked Questions.

Flu Vaccinations

Flu vaccinations for students in Years 7 & 8 will take place on 16 November 2021.

Lateral Flow Testing

Thank you for working with us on this, as testing is crucial for the safety and wellbeing of all the community.

Dropping off to and from school

Thank you for your support on this and the parking problems have improved.  Please do not park in the turning circle or on any double yellow lines and please be considerate to our neighbours and local community.

New Chair of Governors

Due to the retirement of Mrs Shelagh Legrave CBE DL, the Reverend Canon David Nason has been appointed as our Chair of Governors, with Mrs Jenny Clough as Vice Chair.

We would like to send our huge thanks to Shelagh, for her many years of work and support for our school and wish her well in her new post working for the Department of Education.  She will remain as a Trust Governor.

Wishing you all a restful weekend

Kind regards

Yvonne Watkins
Headteacher
